Abstract
A computer enclosure for a computer includes a rear wall, and a shielding panel attached to the rear wall. The shielding panel defines a plurality of I/O accessing holes corresponding to a plurality of connectors of the computer. A plurality of resilient contacting strips extends from edges of each of the accessing holes to resist against the corresponding connector extending therethrough.
Description
- 1. Technical Field
- The present disclosure relates to a computer enclosure.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- A computer enclosure of a computer generally includes a shielding panel attached to a rear wall of the computer enclosure. The shielding panel defines a plurality of I/O (input/output) accessing holes corresponding to connectors of the computer, which are ready for being coupled to peripherals, such as a display and a printer. The connectors should be kept engaged with the shielding panel, otherwise electromagnetic waves will leak through the I/O accessing holes to undesirably interfere with equipment near the computer, or even cause injury to users.
-
FIG. 1 is an assembled, isometric view of a rear wall and a shielding panel of an exemplary embodiment of a computer enclosure, the shielding panel defines a plurality of I/O accessing holes each with a plurality of contacting strips. -
FIG. 2 is a partial, sectioned view ofFIG. 1 taken along line II-II. -
FIG. 3 is a schematic view, similar toFIG. 2 , showing a connector inserted in one of the accessing holes ofFIG. 1 . - Referring to
FIGS. 1-3 , in an exemplary embodiment, a computer enclosure of a computer (not shown) includes arear wall 10, and ashielding panel 20 attached to therear wall 10. Theshielding panel 20 defines a plurality of I/O (input/output) accessingholes 201, corresponding to a plurality ofconnectors 300 of the computer. Theconnectors 300 include a display connector, a printer connector, a keyboard connector, a mouse connector, and so on. Theshielding panel 20 includes a plurality of resilient and electricallyconductive contacting strips 203 arranged around each of the I/O accessing holes 201 and extending into the computer enclosure. In one embodiment, each of the contactingstrips 203 around each of theholes 201 extends slantingly from edges of the accessinghole 201 towards the center of the accessinghole 201. Each of the contactingstrips 203 is wavy in a lengthwise direction thereof to provide the contactingstrip 203 with a elasticity. - To mount the
connectors 300 to theshielding panel 20, the contactingstrips 203 are urged to deform towards insides of theshielding panel 20. When theconnectors 300 are inserted into the corresponding I/O accessing holes 201 of theshielding panel 20, thecontacting strips 203 are released, thereby restoring to resist against thecorresponding connectors 300. Therefore, thecontacting strips 203 tightly contacting theconnectors 300 prevent electromagnetic waves leaking from the I/O accessing holes 201 of the shielding panel 200. - It is believed that the present embodiment and its advantages will be understood from the foregoing description, and it will be apparent that various changes may be made thereto without departing from the spirit and scope of the description or sacrificing all of its material advantages, the example hereinbefore described merely being exemplary embodiments.
Claims (3)
1. A computer enclosure of a computer comprising:
a rear wall;
a shielding panel attached to the rear wall and defining a plurality of I/O accessing holes corresponding to a plurality of connectors of the computer;
wherein the shielding panel comprises a plurality of resilient contacting strips around each of the accessing holes to resist against the corresponding connector extending therethrough.
2. The computer enclosure of claim 1 , wherein the contacting strips around the accessing hole extend slantingly from edges of the accessing holes of the shielding panel, toward a center of the accessing hole.
3. The computer enclosure of claim 1 , wherein each of the contacting strips waves in a lengthwise direction thereof to provide the contacting strip with a preferable elasticity.
